Future O.R. Nurse

less than twelve months???

That advise to borrow books from the library just might work. I just did that in Microbiology. I kept it out the whole semester and returned it when the class was over. That saved me over 110 dollars.

I feel terrible too expecially since I love salad. We did a study on the microbes found in bag salad and I was grossed out! It really affects the way I eat now. However, I think that is the effect it's supposed to have on us to instill in a new nurse...

Im sorry you are going through this. The best thing you can do is change your environment. Unfortunately your family does not know the stress they are putting on you. This is causing you mental and emotional stress, and causing you to lose focus. Exp...

WOW!!

That is pretty scary. I asked the Dr. about it and he laughed at me!! lol So i think im ok.

After all the rave reviews about iPad and applications for the healthcare field, Im wondering if having one is a good idea. I went and tried one out at the Apple store and the size was amazing, it was about the size of a composition notebook but much...

Well you have two options! Take a refresher or volunteer at a hospital. Volunteering would allow you to set your own ours and also look for employment elsewhere.

Oh! I'm not done yet! I have beautiful gowns and dresses and outfits I have never worn. Gadgets and nick nacks that would sell or pawn for a pretty penny! Just a little at a time, as needed. I have a feeling by the time school is over, I'll be sleepi...

I was worried bcause of chemicals used in aerosols and not knowing what was actually in FDS feminine spray and how it would affect my drug test. (just finished taking microbiology, im nervous about everything now lol).

i guess i can't worry about my drug test. im just going to stay positive. i called the doctor's office and they said i'll be o.k. anyway, i found this on a thread and thought i'd share it with you. for those who have a weakness in math as i do, this ...

I went to take my drug test today. I don't do drugs at all. However, when I got home, I realized that I had used FDS woman deodorant:uhoh3: spray. It did not dawn on me not to use it because I use it all the time. Im worried now that my sample will c...

So I haven't started on anything, wondering how I am going to pay for all of this. I am unemployed. Time to re-assess the words value and sacrifice. That beautiful 2 carat diamond ring im still holding on to since my husband left me, went straight t...

Good Question Beachmom, If im not mistaken, we have to choose our professors, and/or clinical sites. You will choose more than one like first choice, second choice. Then we will be assigned one choice or the other. Anyone please correct me if I am wr...

o.k. lets get right down to it. there is a page called fscj fall 2010 accepted. all the helpful tidbits you need hav been posted by others. join us.

This is when an "I told you so" is appropriate!! So guess what? I TOLD YOU!!! LOL Congratulations!!:yeah::clpty::clpty::clpty::dancgrp::dncgbby::wlcmhnds::spnngwlcm::spnngwlcm:

I totally agree. If they decided to put you in the heart room then you have definitely proven yourself worthy. That is a very respectable position in the O.R. It's hard work and very laborious but if given the opportunity I would love to be able to s...

To leht2 I don't think you received that by accident. The orientations went out and I got mine. Your acceptance letter may be right behind it. If not. Go to the north campus and check to make sure. Im going to be hopeful for you and :yeah:say Cograts...

:idea: Make lemonade out of lemons! If you didn't get in this fall, don't give up. Start on your pre-req's for your bachelors degree, communications, foreign language, medical terminology, statistics etc. Keep going!

Thank You

WOW! is all I can say. I am a surgical tech and was never assigned the heart room. I observed one day and knew that it would take atleast a year to be proficient in any heart procedure. Just try not to be overwhelmed! I would really like to come back...

That person you had that convo with just tried to steal your joy bcause she has none. No dreams, no aspirations, no desire to do better! So, ofcourse, she'll say something to discourage you from going after your dream. That was a poisonous statement,...

I have read every post in this article and am sad to see that Dr. Lori's intent for writing the article in the first place was completely overlooked or ignored.A lot of the nurses tried to justify their behavior, make excuses, and blame the new nurse...

There are times when you would have to leave the case. What I am saying is that if you don't have to leave in the middle of the case, then don't. Ofcourse this can't be done 100 percent of the time nor on certain procedures. I always kept crackers, ...
